The aim of this study was to investigate the tyrosinase inhibitory activity and antimicrobial activity by mixtures of ultrasonicated chitosan and Maillard reaction products. Analysis of tyrosinase was purified from potato and confirmed by active staining after SDS-PAGE. Maillard reaction products (MRPs) were formed from various sugars (glucose, fructose, galactose, xylose, arabinose or ribose) and cystein. MRPs inhibited the tyrosinase purified from potato. The highest tyrosinase inhibitory activity was shown by MRP from glucose and cystein. Ultrasonicated chitosan (over 1 hr) showed antimicrobial activity at the concentration of 1% against E. coli and S. aureus. For the development of antibrowning agent with antimicrobial activity, tyrosinase inhibitory and antimicrobial activity by the mixtures of ultrasonicated chitosan and MRP were tested. 1:1 mixture of ultrasonicated chitosan and MRP from glucose and cystein was the best antibrowning agent having antimicrobial activity.

Hair will be persuit of beautifulness of human being in various permanent wave by many kinds of its drugs. Skin is based upon the hair which enroll the body of high living animals and have multiple membrane structure In this study used rat the effects of commercial permanent wave products to skin which are composed with L- cysteine and bases Results are as follow: the content of penetration 4 hors later with steady state and no significant changeable after 20 hours later. In cysteine groups, lag time and permeability coefficient of healthy skin is 2.22hr and 0.13$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥ hr, lag time and permeability coefficient of old skin is 4.01 hr and 0.108 $\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥ hr . In conclusion of study lag time and permeability coefficient in old skin and wounded skin are faster than healthy skin. We notified that fine rinkle and rash of skin were changeable in the case of treating with permanent wave drugs than normal skin.

Variations of the seventeen amino acids(aspartic acid, threonine, serine, glutamic acid, proline, glycine, alanine, cystein, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, histidine, lysine, arginine) were analyzed in human hair sample by amino acid auto analyzer(AAA). The effect of bleaching and permanent wave manipulation on the amino acid composition of hair were investigated. Hair samples were collected from 10 males in their thirties. Hair samples were treated with 10 mL of 6 N hydrochloric acid at $110^{\circ}C$ for 24 h and analysed by AAA. The results showed that the amino acid content of normal hair(73.9%) decreased to 71.5% and 69.3% after bleaching and permanent wave treatment, respectively. Furthermore, mean contents of lysine and tyrosine in amino acids showed obviously decreased about 25% by permanent wave and bleaching treatment. On the other hand, serine, cystein, leucine and histidine were not changed.

Fresh-cut burdock roots were processed at 4 and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. The fresh-cut burdock roots were treated with different browning inhibitors (3% citric acid, 3% sodium chloride, 0.3% cystein, and 3% sodium acetate solutions), and the changes in their quality and browning characteristics were investigated. The respiration rate and browning index of the cut roots prepared at $4^{\circ}C$ were lower than those of the cut roots prepared at $25^{\circ}C$. The soluble solid content was higher in the cut roots prepared at $4^{\circ}C$ than in those prepared at $25^{\circ}C$. The weight loss and flesh firmness were not affected by the processing temperatures. Among the browning inhibitors, 0.3% cystein showed the best browning-retarding effect. There was no difference in phenolic compound content between the browning-inhibitor-treated roots and the nontreated roots, but the PPO activity was higher in the latter than in the former. Therefore, the processing temperatures of fresh-cut burdock roots affected their quality and browning development, and the combination of a low processing temperature and the use of the proper browning inhibitor should be applied for the higher quality of the produce.

A fermentation study of the recombinant Escherichia coli system has been tired to overproduce a recombinant Paragonimus westermani cysteine proteinase, rPwCP1. Using the modified LB media, main cultures and chemical induction with IPTG were carried out to examine the possibility of secretory protein overproduction at high cell density culture. As a result, the target protein of rPwCP1, purified by metal affinity chromatography and gel filtration, has been shown at 50.8 kDa on SDS-PAGE, and its final concentration turns out to be 350mg/L.

To increase the productivity of in vitro development, the antioxidants have been used for culture system of bovine oocytes and embryos. However, comparative studies on these molecules are rare and direct beneficial effects on blastocyst production cannot be discriminated for best results. The study was conducted to determine the influence of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), N-acetyl-L-cysteine amide (NACA), glutathione (GSH) and cysteamime (CYS) on maturation competence of COCs from GV to MII stage and productivity of blastocyst formation during in vitro fertilization and culture. There was no difference among maturation rates of oocytes to metaphase II with polar body with antioxidants for any of the treatment groups (p>0.05). However, the significant improvement on the rate of blastocysts ($32.3{\pm}5.0%$) was found in 0.1 mM CYS treatment than 0.3 mM NAC, 0.2 mM NACA or 0.5mM GSH (p<0.05). The addition of NAC ($18.8{\pm}3.7%$) or NACA ($21.2{\pm}3.9%$) did not improve development competence to morula and blastocysts than control ($24.4{\pm}4.1%$) and GSH ($26.5{\pm}5.0%$) (p>0.05). Our study showed that medium supplementation with CYS during IVM and IVC improved the rate of bovine embryo development but not with NAC, NACA and GSH addition.

The polysaccharide was predominantly composed of glucose (79.60%), galactose (9.68%), mannose(8.67%), fructose (1.96%;) and xylose (0.09%). Major amino acid in protein was consisted of cystein, aspartic acid, valine and glutamic acid. The tumor growth inhibition ratio of the polysaccharide against Sarcoma 180 was at highest level of 64.96%, when administerd at the concentration of 50 mg/kg and life prologation ratio showed 28.91% at the concentration of 50 mg/kg. The direct cytotoxic effect of polysaccharide was not observed in the tumor bearing mice with Sarcoma 180 in vitro.

This research was conducted to predict taste of barley kanjang using multiple regression analysis between taste components and sensory score. In the analysis of single correlation, the correlation coefficient of proline, alanine, Methionine, lysine, histidine, lavulinic acid, ${\alpha}$-ketogutaric acid was significant in 5% level. On the other hand, the taste of barley kanjang was not significantly effected by threonine, serine, cystein, phenylalanine, succinic acid, arabinose, xylose, and sucrose. It was impossible to measure taste of kanjang with barley bran to use simple correlation analysis. The 93% of barley kanjang taste was predicted using multiple regression analysis with taste components and sensory evaluation scores.

To investigate the effects of pre-treatment and packaging materials for dried persimmon during 6 month storage, the citric acid, salt, xylitol, L-cystein was pre-treated on dried persimmon, and then packed with LDPE film($0.06\;{\mu}m$) and N/LDPE($0.06\;{\mu}m$). The rate of moisture contents, browning, fungi and weight loss of dried persimmon pre-treated with citric acid, salt, xylitol, L-cystein were changed a little in N/LDPE, but were highly changed in LDPE. The commodity of dried persimmon packed with N/LDPE was also higher than that of LDPE.
